Lor does not pull into strings like kaşar, nor stay firm like white cheese; it softens in the pan and folds into the egg. That is what gives these eggs a creamy texture. Add the lor when the eggs are half cooked, not at the start.

Method

  1. Melt the butter

    Melt the butter in a pan over a low heat.

  2. Pour in the eggs

    Beat the eggs, pour them into the pan and wait for a minute.

  3. Stir

    Stir for 2 minutes with a spatula, drawing the edges into the middle.

  4. Add the lor

    When the eggs are half cooked, add the lor in pieces.

  5. Finish

    Stir over a low heat for another 2 minutes; the lor should soften and fold into the egg.

  6. Serve

    Serve with salt, black pepper, chilli flakes and dill.

Tips

  • Do not add the lor at the start; adding it when the eggs are half cooked gives the creamy texture.
  • Work over a low heat, as a high one makes the lor release liquid and the pan go watery.
  • Adjust the salt to how salty the lor is, tasting as you go.
